RNAi knockdown of chemosensory genes affected M. graminicola chemosensation to nonvolatile organic compounds and plant root exudates. Comparative CI of gfp dsRNA-treated J2s and Mg-odr-7/Mg-tax-4/Mg-tax-4.1/Mg-osm-9/Mg-ocr-2 silenced J2s towards selective nonvolatiles (A) and root exudates (B) are shown. Each bar indicates average CI from three biological and technical replicates ± SE. Asterisks denote significant difference (P < 0.01, paired t-test) in CI of J2s towards test chemicals when compared to the CI of J2s towards water (negative control)
